/View.info/ There is no danger of a gas crisis. This was stated at a briefing by the Minister of Economy, Energy and Tourism, Delyan Dobrev.
After the floor speech of the leader of “Movement of Bulgaria for Citizens” Meglena Kuneva, that our country is facing the danger of repeating the gas crisis of 2008, Minister Dobrev explained that such a danger does not exist, as a new contract will be concluded very soon. “When you have two pipes, you are much more likely to have more suppliers than when you have one,” commented the energy minister.
“South Stream” and the new gas contract from January were discussed at today’s extraordinary meeting of the Pact for Industrial Stability. The contract we are about to conclude is more interesting, the minister added.
